Maranui cafe is one of the most popular cafe in Wellington (20 min walk from our place). It is ideal for breakfast, brunch or lunch... the view of the ocean and the atmosphere is great... just be prepared that there might be a half an hour wait for getting a table, if you go there on the weekend or public holiday.

Tipps für Reisende
Verkehrsmittel
Taking the bus may not be the best option
Buses are relatively expensive in NZ... if you are travelling in a pair, then the cost of an Uber would be just a little more expensive than taking the bus...
If you do take the bus, make sure you buy a Snapper card (the bus fair is cheaper if you pay with Snapper card)
